Biography

I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of South Australia. My research intersects the life and social sciences, exploring whether we can improve brain functioning and mental health through built environment design. During my doctoral thesis I investigated how modifiable interior design characteristics of buildings (such as colour and scale) impact processes we use in daily life such as perception, attention, and emotion regulation.
